Product Overview

Ever wished you could add a light switch to a wall but didn't because of the cost and hassle with Mini Remote Switch, you're free to place a switch wherever you need it. The Mini Remote Switch is an easy-to-use wireless remote that allows you to control Insteon bulbs, dimmers, switches and plug-in or receptacle dimmers. Now you can raise and lower light levels and program scenes for multiple lights from anywhere. Mount it to the wall to create a traditional switch in the perfect location - without having to rewire (wall mount bracket and wall plate sold separately). You can also make it a tabletop control for your nightstand, counter or coffee table by attaching it to a tabletop stand (sold separately); turn on your house lights from the car by attaching it to a visor clip (sold separately); or even use it as a lightweight handheld remote. The Mini Remote Switch is ultra-easy to install and operate, giving you the most flexibility for a truly smart home with Insteon.

Customer Questions & Answers

Does this need batteries?

Since the claim is it can be used anywhere (even as a remote in your car), does it need batteries to operate?

Asked by: Bob

Yes and no.
Yes it needs batteries because it is not connected to the power line (and therefore only uses the wireless protocol).
No, it doesn't need AA or similar things because it is charged via USB (and needs to be connected with a USB cable during charging).

Does it control the Insteon 2466SW ?

Asked by: NdYAG

I don't have the 2466SW but I believe this remote controls any Insteon switch. No hub needed, unless you want to get your home network into the act (in which case you won't need this remote).

Remote Anywhere SwitchI purchased this remote along with the 2477S Insteon light switch. I replaced my everyday paddle switch with it without a problem. I purchased these switches to create the equivalent of a 3-way switch at the top and bottom of my stairs. It worked perfectly and saved me the hassle of having to run any new wire.
The only problem that could come up when installing, is that you need a neutral wire in the box -- I am told that the switch will not work without a neutral. Additionally, when I purchased this switch, the manufacturer stated that it wold work with CFL bulbs, but it did not say anything about LED lights. I have been using it for a few month with LED retrofit fixtures and have not had any issues.
I highly recommend.

Remotely control remotely controlled light switchesOnce you replace an existing light switch with an Insteon remotely controlled switch you can use this device to control the new switch. You can leave this remote on a table or install it on a wall as if it were a regular switch, i.e., you can switch lights from a different location without adding new cables.
This worked very well for us when we changed the lighting in our kitchen (but get the wall plate accessory to install on a wall!). The remote control contains a battery but it can be charged with a USB cable.
